A woman who spent GBP60,000 from a trust set up for the child of her deceased friends has been jailed for two years. Melaney Watford was made a trustee and legal guardian for the 17-year-old orphan in 2015, after his parents died leaving him a GBP125,000 lump sum, plus GBP200 per month. Watford, of Mitcham, south London, used the trust fund to pay her own household expenses and now cannot repay any more than GBP1,500.
